for romney, too smooth. debating from behind. they talk about obama's weaknesses saying that he has a slow approach, sometimes a stuttering approach and he can be somewhat long-winded. how do you evaluate that. >> i think both of them have strengths and weaknesses. i disagree that some of those are disagree that some are weaknesses and some are strengths. president obama's detachment can be a weakness. sometimes he can come across aloof and detached. detached from what's going on at that moment. both are capable of losing their cool. i've seen it happen with both of them in previous debates. mitt romney actually being from behind can be an advantage for him. the times i've seen him do best is when he is the underdog, when he is on the ropes. i saw him do best, probably his two best debates, suzanne were the florida debates with when newt gingrich had beat him lining a pulp in the south carolina debates a few weeks before. so i think that could actually be an advantage for mitt romney. he seems to be good under pressure. but, you

president obama did not win the first debate against mitt romney. whether or not you're happy about that he didn't win. but if your takeaway from this conspiracy theory in this debate is the reason the president didn't win is because mitt romney cheated, then what is the utility of that theory for you? what is the utility of that information? how do you think president obama should then prepare for the second debate? should he just do exactly what he did this past wednesday night, except keep a closer eye out for the cheating because that is the only reason he lost? i mean, it may be comforting to tell yourself this is what really went wrong here but that is not really what went wrong here and making the case that it was does not help your candidate. the worst example of this though, the invention of a comforting new parallel reality that does not mean you have to face hard truths. the worst new instance of this is how the right today responded to the new jobs numbers. today the unemployment rate dropped from 8.1% to 7.8%. it didn't drop for any of
